I'm glad to see people took it to their liking. This one is longer, so I hope you like it :)

She was taking deep breaths to try to stop herself from hyperventilating when she felt someone tap her shoulder...

She turned around, startled, and her breath caught in her throat. It wasn't until he cleared his throat that she realized she was staring. She shook her head, pulling her out of her reverie. She smiled, afraid her voice might crack and give her away. He was even more handsome than before, if that were possible. He smirked and her heart stopped in her chest. It was her smirk. She let out a breath she didn't know she was holding and he pulled her into his embrace. Her body liquefied as she melted into his arms. It was basically speaking for itself. She inhaled deeply and took in his scent. It was his smell. It hadn't changed a bit. He did the same thing and almost lost it right there. She wasn't sure how long they stood there and she couldn't care less. It was as if the whole world stopped spinning. It wouldn't have mattered anyway; she was in his arms again.

After a while of just holding each other, Finn pulled away reluctantly and moved to sit down. He never left her gaze as she sat down across from him. But that was just it. They just sat down. No one said a word. It was just a whole lot of staring. It wouldn't have been so awkward until the waitress cleared her throat. They were both pulled out of their trance and she quickly turned to the waitress with a confused look on her face. "Would you like another cup of coffee?" She asked, noticeably annoyed. Rachel nodded and turned to Finn just as the waitress did. "How 'bout you, honey?" She asked Finn who quickly nodded. "Thank you." The waitress turned around keeping her eyes on Finn for a little too long. As Rachel turned her ahead towards Finn, she blinked furiously trying to erase the image of that from her memory.

But all the bitterness faded away when she saw him. He was smiling and it was contagious. A smile broke out across her face. "Hey." That was all he said and she felt her heart falter. "Hi." When she said that she swallowed thickly, feeling her throat getting dry. "This is really awkward, isn't it?" he asked. She nodded still smiling. He couldn't help but notice the adorable way her nose scrunched up. "I didn't expect it to be like this." He added unsure of what to say. She opened her mouth and closed it a couple of times unsure of what to say. She finally cleared her throat, making sure it was OK to speak. "How have things been... since I left?" He sighed, instantly grateful that she started the conversation. He talked and talked about how his mother ended up marrying Kurt's father, a long-time friend of Rachel as well. He talked about how he was quarterback in high school and how he won Prom King alongside Quinn, who Rachel was a distant friend of.

He spoke of how he wanted to join the Glee club knowing that she would've loved it. He hesitantly admitted that he didn't join because it would've reminded him too much of her. He was satisfied when she wasn't mad but instead saw the blush spread across her cheeks; something he missed so much. After he was finished, and he gestured towards her that it was her turn to share, she did. She told him about joining the show choir, which hadn't surprised him, she told him about not getting excepted into Julliard and how it killed her. She did, however, get accepted into NYU and she told him about the one time she had gotten drunk in college and had never ever gotten drunk again. He promised her to change that soon which quickly brought back the blush across her face. Although both of them were friends, neither talked about relationships. She didn't want to know if he had a wife, or if he was still a virgin, but she was curious. She didn't want to bring it up and was unsure of how to do so without seeming pushy or nosy. She was talking and gesturing with her hands when he saw it. She seem oblivious to the fact that he was staring at it.

What was he expecting? He knew she had to move on eventually. Scratch that. They were never together so she hadn't even moved on. She was just continuing her life. It was natural. He hadn't even noticed she stopped talking. His heartbeat was beating too loud in his ears for him to notice anything. He was sure she could hear it. "Finn?" she asked with a worried expression on her face. She was worried, he looked hurt and she wasn't sure why. Surely she hadn't said anything to upset him. She was very careful about what she said. She was staring at him waiting for him to show some kind of sign that he was alive. "Finn, are you okay?" And that's when she saw it. She followed his gaze and her breath caught in her throat. She wasn't expecting him to find out on his own. She wanted to tell him. "Finn?" She asked barely higher than a whisper.

"Rach, is that what I think it is?"


Cliffhanger :D

What do you think Finn saw? What is Rachel hiding? Does anyone have any ideas?

Keep reviewing, honest opinions please :D
